    A large acro colony I just bought is RTN'ing although everything else in that tank looks fine. In the other tank one of my Yumas snuck up the side of a rock in the night and stung my prized blue Maxi-Mini so badly one half of it is falling to pieces. I ahd no idea that yumas were that sting-ey or could move 2" in 12 hours.

    Sorry to hear that! Did you try to frag the acro in hopes of saving some of it? Did you try to cut the maxi-mini through the mouth in hopes of saving it? Let us know how things go :0)

    I fragged the colony up. Some of the frags today are also RTN'ing, but some still look fine. Keeping my fingers crossed.


    I didn't cut the nem. The damage did not go clear to the mouth and I didn't see any reason to create further trauma. I turned the rock so it was way farter away from the yumas, but I had to laugh because in the night moved to the next rock further over. First time it has moved since put in my tank 18 months ago. I guess it didn't feel like I moved it far enough away from the bully that stung it and wanted to make sure it was safe.
